Inspection Copies
Many Anthem textbooks are available for inspection to lecturers based in the USA, UK and elsewhere.
We will consider requests from academics based at a registered academic address teaching a class of 12 or more students. We will supply up to three different textbooks to an academic requesting books for one course.
 
Where applicable, we will always supply titles in the paperback edition. We reserve the right to supply an inspection copy in electronic format. All inspection copies are supplied at our discretion, and we reserve the right to refuse a request for an inspection copy.
Inspection copies are available on a 30-day inspection basis for adoption on courses of 12 or more students. After 30 days the book should be either:
Adopted
Paid for
Returned in a saleable condition
To request an inspection copy, please follow the link below. You will be asked to fill out our Inspection Copy Request Form. Please note we require the form to be completed in full.
 
Desk Copies
A desk copy is available when at least 10 copies have been adopted for a course. Your order for a free desk copy should be placed with the bookseller who is ordering the texts for your course. For more information, contact orders@wpcpress.com.
Conferences, Exhibitions and Bookfairs
Each year Anthem Press has a presence at a large number of conferences, exhibitions and bookfairs to promote our titles and to build lasting relationships with the wider academic and publishing communities. Please visit our News Room & Media page to view upcoming events.
